The Skin I'am In

The book The Skin I'am In made me kind of sad because It's about a girl that is black her name is Maleeka and everyone makes fun of her for just being black. She is trying to fit in with the popular girls because she is tired that everyone is teasing her. Then this new teacher at school is worst than her because she has something on her face and all the kids make fun of , so Maleeka and Ms.Saunders are in the same situation . Well that's all I know about this book I still have to read more so i hope It gets more excited.
